Human rights Judgements

Summary: The six applicants were jointly charged in a magistrates court with a contravention of s 6(6) of the Law and Order (Maintenance) Act [Chapter 65], it being alleged that they had taken part in a public procession for which a permit under s 6(2) of the Act had not been obtained. After pleas of not guilty had been tendered, counsel for the applicants sought to argue that s 6 was ultra vires ss 20 and 21 of the Constitution of Zimbabwe and that, in consequence, the charge was bad in law.
